He means "at". The 'a' and 's' keys are right next to each other, so that was clearly a typo.

The problem I see with this image is that the brightest, highest contrast element (two metrics for drawing the eye) is that wooden panel behind the vines (despite being out of focus). Then the green vines jump out against the gold. Everything else in the image is of a fairly consistent, undemanding color.

If your subject is the fountain, I wouldn't call this a particularly successful image.

Gary has a point, but I still like it. Why is it the fountain is not in a full frame?

Because it is a garden fountain and I wanted to document it
as an element in the decor, as the cellar door is as well. When
it comes to the cropped part of it… natural clumsiness I guess.

I feel little off with the crop part but this one is pretty colorful.
